They’re interesting stuff and it would be nice to get some discussion going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loaded as well has exclusive Zool 2 tracks if you do it. The disc from Network Q RAC Rally Championship on the PC could be played on a CD player. Great game and classic early 90s dance/trance soundtrack as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Maybe on a similar avenue, games on vinyl! This video just popped up on my feed featuring a little game about The Thompson Twins of all acts, I know Chris Seivey/Frank Sidebottom also had a game on a b-side of his, too. I imagine even at the time they were a pain in the fucking arse to get working. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My layman's understanding is that moving to discs meant they had absolutely loads of storage space, but the PS1 still only had 2MB of RAM so there were limits to what they could realistically make use of within that space. So that's where we got things like hefty pre-rendered cutscenes and/or loading it up with playable music tracks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To crossover the demo disc chat and audio track chat, there was a demo disc that had some clunky 3rd person dungeon crawler on it - possibly Excalibur 2555 AD - where, if you played the demo for long enough, it would start playing music from one of the other games on the disc, so you were wandering around this medieval dungeon setting to the music from a racing game playing. Confused the hell out of me at the time, but I assume it's because the full game's code would, at a certain point, call for "Track 3" or whatever to be played, but it hadn't been changed for the demo version, so "Track 3" was a completely different bit of music from a completely different game. Speaking of Excalibur 2555AD, it's a rightly forgotten game that I only know from the demo, and that I spend years at a time not being able to remember the title of, but me and my brother have routinely been quoting the horrendously acted dialogue to each other for the last 25 years or more. "What have you got to barter with then, eh?". "I can't serve you a drink, because I haven't got any glasses". Awful stuff, but funny what sticks with you. Similarly, there's a couple of Net Yaroze games that will always stay with me from demo discs - one is the imaginatively titled Adventure Game, which had a lot of fun RPG in-jokes to elevate it above being an otherwise pretty generic game, the other is Terra Incognita, which I once saw described as "translated from Japanese into English by somebody who apparently speaks neither". There's an amazing bit early on where your cowardly sidekick won't join you on an adventure, which he explains by saying, "I'm really, really scary".

Big Bully Busick Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16   Now this fan made game is pretty much exactly what I wanted from a Masters of the Universe game in every way  Instead we got some terrible adaptations of the franchise littered around various systems that nobody cared about  I absolutely love how remisisant of the show this is, from the art style to the sound effects and soundtrack  And you can even choose Lion O for some fantastic reason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Carbomb Posted May 16 Paid Members Share Posted May 16 Oh, wow! It never occurred to me they could've done essentially a Golden Axe port for MOTU. Why didn't they?! Glad someone's done it now, anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
